XiteBio® OptiPlus® for Soybeans – In-furrow Dual Inoculant
XiteBio® OptiPlus® is a versatile, multi-action liquid soybean inoculant that can be applied in-furrow and is available as a ready to use package. XiteBio® OptiPlus® combines XiteBio’s AGPT® (Advanced Growth Promoting Technology) bacterial inoculant platform with yield-enhancing PGPR (Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria). XiteBio® OptiPlus® adds an optimum number of nitrogen-fixing rhizobia to soybeans to enhance nodulation while also increasing plant available soil-fixed phosphorous, iron and calcium. The easy-to-use XiteBio® OptiPlus® liquid formulation goes beyond traditional inoculants by working with native soil rhizobium instead of competing with them, and can be tank-mixed with compatible liquid fertilizers or water for easy in-furrow application.
The advantages of XiteBio® OptiPlus® include:
- Introduces optimum numbers of rhizobia
- All-in-one, easy to handle package
- Easy In-furrow application
- Agronomic performance equal to or better than granular inoculants
